A comparison of 2 different biological materials for the treatment of receding gums with VISTA technique

Phase 2/3

Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Systemically healthy volunteers presenting with Cairos RT 1 gingival recession on atleast 2 teeth; Gingival recession,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2022/11/047450
• Lead Sponsor: Hoshang Advani

Brief Summary

The study aims to compare the effectiveness of the minimally invasive Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access (VISTA) technique either with amnion membrane or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for the treatment of Cairo’s RT 1 gingival recession defects.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the change in aesthetic Root coverage which is done by measuring - Recession Height (RH), Recession Width (RW), and Pocket Probing depth (PPD) following treatment of Gingival recession by VISTA with PRF or Amnion membrane (AM).

The secondary objective is to assess the change in the following parameters following intervention for gingival recession:

1.    Width of keratinized gingiva

2.    Relative attachment level

3.    Mean root coverage
